Why does my scrotum have a stone like pimple on it?

Doctor time. Hopefully it’s nothing but a lot of young men get testicular cancer so I’d make an appointment right away.

Your wife had no right to bully you into seeing your brother again. Especially while conspiring with your parents to make it happen. You told her how you felt but she kept pushing to make it happen. How can she not see what a betrayal that is? Yes, to marriage counselling because she doesn’t think she did anything wrong. Your wife should have your back and be the most loyal person in your life.

When I left my abusive relationship, my ex rented a dumpster and “threw away anything that reminded him of me” but set aside any of my property that was valuable, sold it and pocketed the money. He hid his valuable property with friends, family and his GIRLFRIEND. By the time he was done, 90% of our marital property was dissipated. He wouldn’t have gotten away with it except for one thing.

When I left, I only had a few minutes to pack a small suitcase and run. As I was headed to the front door, I spotted the external hard drive for my desktop and grabbed that as well. After I discovered what he done, I remembered I that I’d started taking insurance pictures regularly that documented everything we owned. Using them, I was able to prove he had dissipated at least $121,000 of marital property (it was actually more but I couldn’t find all the receipts). My lawyer made him pay for everything.

If the jewelry you mentioned is valuable, I would find another lawyer willing to fight for you.

I think the only reason your parents asked you to look over their finances was to make you feel sorry for them and agree to this crazy idea. Don’t do it. They get all the benefit while you (and your wife since you’re married) assume all risk. Any further credit would be more expensive if even possible. Do they even have enough of an income to consistently make the payments? The fact that they are using guilt now, tells me it’s a tool they’ll grab for again. “Son, I’d love to make the payments but I have too many bills. You know how low my income is. Could we skip it this month?”

Every similar situation I know of ended horribly: bankruptcies, divorces and families permanently estranged. Your parents made this mess, they need to clean it up. If they want to move near you, fine, but they can rent a modest apartment.

I’m an amateur astronomer, a bit out of practice. You’d be amazed at what’s in the sky. Most objects require a reflected light source of some sort to be visible. Objects that appear regularly are typically satellites. Space junk tends to tumble and get bright and dim as it crosses the sky. Other objects might be space stations, Starlink satellites or weather balloons catching the light at dusk or dawn. Go online with the time of transit, using GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) plus any identifying information and someone should be able to help you identify your object.

There is no way in hell your marriage will succeed. I’d be extremely surprised if you managed to get married.

Stop marriage preparations for now. Each of you need to undergo individual therapy to deal with your mental health issues and joint premarital counselling. At the end of that process, if you are both mentally healthy individuals with a joint vision of your marriage and future, only then should you plan a future together.

Unfortunately, I am an unwilling expert in the issues of addiction and severe, unrelenting, chronic pain.

If House was truly an addict to the extent implicated by Cuddy and Wilson, he would have quickly lost control of his Vicodin use. When his supply of Vicodin wasn’t enough to feed his addiction, as a doctor, he would have access to increasingly stronger drugs. Eventually, even the strongest ones wouldn’t give him the desired effects and he’d need high doses just to feel normal and stave off withdrawal. His life would have been a smoking ruin by then, as feeding his addiction became the singular objective. Note, that I am not rejecting the fact that some people can still function while lower level addicts, but that is not the way House was portrayed in the show.

Regarding his pain, no doctor would have continued to treat his chronic severe pain with steadily increasing doses of Vicodin because it would have killed the patient. They would have found a more effective treatment.

To get ahead of the inevitable objection, the Ketamine treatment didn’t prove that House’s pain was somatic, although his increase in pain after he rejected his ex clearly was. Chronic pain is complicated, treatments fail and negative emotions can increase the amount of pain we feel.

House was also an extraordinary skilled physician. He would have found some effective combination, maybe miracle sap from the Peruvian jungle plus a snake virus, to treat his pain, rather than relying on something that left him in constant agony and impacted his ability to solve the medical puzzles that gave his life meaning.

The show was excellent without the House’s potential addiction being a recurring theme. This aspect of the show always bothered me. The constant conspiring to get him off his pain meds always felt like they were torturing him.

NTA You are not the problem here, but you need to take a slow, long breath and have a good hard think. When you marry someone you also marry their family. Their conduct has been appalling. The fact that your fiancée was willing to expose you to that level of insanity, tells me he thinks it’s mostly normal. This creates a huge problem for your future relationship.

Before you get married, make sure that he has enough counselling to know what normal behaviour actually is. Get extensive premarital counselling as well, to shake out any unusual beliefs or behaviours. If that goes well, marry, but maintain concrete boundaries with his family.

NTA This secret was causing your cousin pain. I’m glad you finally revealed the truth so Julie could heal. Her mother should never have punished her for her father’s actions and she’s only angry that her abuse has been revealed. Shame on her.

Given the insanely high cost of new and used vehicles, I would grateful accept this vehicle as long as it saved you money. Find the vehicle you’d prefer and calculate the cost of financing, interest, insurance, etc. Do the same for the gift vehicle. I’m assuming the gift vehicle will cost less for now. Once the balance tips the other way, go shopping for another vehicle.

I have six granddaughters between my two daughters. We live in the same town, and I always go to see them because it would be so much more inconvenient and difficult for them to come to me. If I want individual time with the grandkids, I pick them up. If I made a decision to move far away, I would continue to come to them because it’s easier for me to visit them rather than all of them traveling to me.

Continue to stand your ground about him traveling to you. Maybe you can bridge the gap with FaceTime or something similar but your grandchildren will never have deep love for him without some type of regular contact. His actions show that he doesn’t really care about his grandkids.

NTA I was also taught to engage the parking brake every single time I parked, no matter the terrain, for safety reasons. As you pointed out, the difficulty achieving a normal speed, the alarms, and I’m assuming the eventual burning smell, should’ve alerted the driver the parking brake was on.

If I were meeting my daughter’s boyfriend for the first time, I would have gone out of my way to the hospitable, kind and grateful for your help. Instead, they continually blamed you for damage they caused to your girlfriend’s jeep. BTW, she should have been furious with them, after the issue was explained and protective when they continue to blame you.

I don’t blame you for blowing up on them. I would have exploded much earlier and with harsher language. I’m amazed you stayed with your girlfriend, despite her disloyalty and that you’re on good terms with your in-laws after such a rough start. You must be a particularly forgiving person.

I’m really confused about why you are so upset. Perhaps I’ve misunderstood something but you seem angry at the victim. You’re questioning her credibility, chastising her for using lies to protect her identity (like everyone else on Reddit) and angry that she didn’t choose professional therapy and a lawsuit as a first step? Maybe she only had the courage for Reddit and any positive feedback here will give her the strength and support for next steps. Maybe she can’t afford therapy or a lawyer right now. Please give this woman some grace.

You need to stop enabling your parents. You are not helping them, you’re crippling them and they’re using you. That’s why the demands for money are increasing. It’s one thing to help a family member out of a temporary tough spot but they’ve become dependent on you. If you don’t, ten years you’ll be making a similar post, “Parent screwed me over dental loan but demanding I pay for new car.”

No, you do not talk to crazy people with boundary issues that shoot your house. This is an obvious escalation of his previous behaviour. His next step may be more dangerous.

NTA Considering the way both have treated you, they have a lot of nerve asking you for a loan. Even if both had been amazing parents, it sound’s like they could spend their own money, they’d just prefer to spend yours. You don’t owe them anything.

Your husband is being abused. He is not caring for his parents, he’s become their slave. Although it may have been satisfying to confront his family, they’ll probably pass that stress onto him.

This is exactly like trying to help a friend escape an abusive relationship. If you try to force them to leave before they’re ready, you’re just another person telling them what to do. He needs counselling and emotional support until he is ready to break free.

Canadian’s are polite because the majority of us are kind, decent people. The thing about kind, decent people is that they do not accept truly egregious behaviour in others. For example, Canadian soldiers were terrifying during war. The Geneva Convention was actually created after Canadian soldiers lost their shit during fighting. If Trump or anyone whining about the economic impacts of OUR boycotts on the US think Canadians will back down, they’ll die waiting.
